Tasted at the Disznóko vertical in London, the 2006 Tokaji Aszu 5 Puttonyos is a blend of 55% Furmint, 35% Zéta and 10% Hárslevelu (Aszu grapes) with 140 grams per liter of residual sugar. It has a slightly deeper color than the 2007 at the moment. The bouquet is very seductive, very pure with orange blossom, quince and marmalade scents, then underneath something a little earthy. The palate is very well balanced with crisp acidity, lively and very harmonious, a classic Tokaji full of spice and edginess, tangy and energetic on the long finish. This is a superb Tokaji, just beginning to show some secondary characteristics and destined for long-term ageing. Wine Advocate 95
